guru Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Since Donahoe became GM, Buffalo sports talkshow hosts, Buffalo's sportwriters and thousands and thousands of fans have bemoaned how Bills football has become boring, dull, unentertaining, and frustrating to watch. When Flutie played for the Bills, he always kept me on the edge of my seat in anticipation of what magic he was going to pull off next. I can't say that about any of his successors so far! FLUTIE LOVES THE GAME OF FOOTBALL and KNOWS THAT THE BUSINESS OF FOOTBALL IS ALL ABOUT ENTERTAINMENT...he had Buffalo buzzing with football excitement. Every Bills QB since Flutie has been absolute Dullsville. They have given little outward indication on the field that they love playing football...to them it seems to be just a job! It is a travesty that Ralph Wilson,Donahoe and Williams ran Flutie out of town. Look up Eric Mould's stats. He had most of the best games/performances of his career when Flutie was the QB. Flutie and Johnson played behind the same Offensive Line, but the results were like night and day. Those who are blaming the Bills Oline as the source of all of Bledsoe's poor performances have short memories. Flutie is a field general. If you saw come in off the bench to the SD vs. Jets game last Sunday with 5 min. left, and engineer a long TD drive, you can see that he has tons more field savvy than Bledsoe ever will....Five minutes to put together a scoring drive...something that Bledsoe couldn't do in 7 full games last year! Flutie always brings elements of the unpredictable on to the field as part of his game plan...something that Bledsoe is not capable of because he is a statue standing in cement shoes. From the little that I have seen J.P. Losman play, he impresses me as being a lot like Flutie in his style of play...I don't think that Losman is wearing #7 as a coincidence. For me, Losman cannot get healthy fast enough so that Dreadful Bedsore Deadsoe can be benched FOREVER from ever playing another game in a Bills uniform.

RVJ Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 I can't wait till he's the starting QB...or till DB is not the starting QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tomcat Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 I've thought Losman was a highbred of Flutie and Johnson.... He will be exciting... Flutie fans need to remember how he LOST 8 GAMES IN A ROW playing in San Diego....and how defenses have learned to SHUT HIM DOWN COMPLETELY.....if a team has time to game plan he's not that good...check his wins/losses as a QB since leaving Buffalo....not good.... He's a great "change of pace guy" & I'd love to have him as a BACKUP but his starting days are over....anyone thinking otherwise is fooling themselves.... Losman will energize this team like Flutie did because he can move and still make plays......hopefully he'll get his leg healed and back on the field.... we shall see what the future holds......

The guy is nothing but a media whore, and he plays them like fiddle. There was a time when I too thought he was a gift from the gods, but after a while it became clear to me that doug flutie only cares about 1 thing, and that is doug flutie. Plus, he's an a$$holio: I ran into him during his last year with the bills while he was at Eastview Mall by himself, walking around and shopping bc he was injured while everyone else was at practice. To make a long story short he's not the nice guy everyone makes him out to be, the guy who cares about the fans first and foremost. Theres nothing I lov emore than when SD puts him in only to watch him struggle to play like the player he thinks he is, fail, then blame everyone else.

bobblehead Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Losman=RJ No matter what anyone says, what JP does (or did in the past), or what anyone sees, this will never go away, will it? Someone will always say this, even when it's based entirely on squat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan in San Diego Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Flutie is one of the best off the bench backups in the NFL if not the best. But as a starter the defenses know how to shut him down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawgg Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Yup. That's why as a starter, Flutie's record was 20-12. Flutie is one of the best off the bench backups in the NFL if not the best.

BillnutinHouston Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 Please do not say that JP = Flutie. Don't you dare destroy my anticipation in waiting to see what JP can do. It's like being all excited to be with your new bride to be & then catching her picking her nose on your wedding night. A bit of a turn off.

BuffaloBob Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 Yup. That's why as a starter, Flutie's record was 20-12. 45390[/snapback] Yes that's correct. In Buffalo he benefitted from a top ranked defense that held opponents routinely to under 13 points. That really helped a Flutie run offense that scored rarely scored more than 13 a game. And when the defense couldn't hold the opponent under 13, they usually helped out by scoring some points of their own. Of course, it wasn't until he got to San Diego with a lesser defense that his 22-10 mark evened up and went negative really quickly. Currently, his record in games in which he has played is now 30-34. YAWN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
